00:00We always hear that there's money in the trash.
00:10But in the heart of Zamboanga del Sur,
00:12there's a designer who believes that there's beauty in the trash.
00:20A gown made of trash can be used as a ramp.
00:23Road clear are folks known as level RC.
00:3136, you're echo queen from Pagatiyan City, Zamboanga del Sur.
00:38Trash to class.
00:40The main point of our advocacy
00:43is for people to notice and learn
00:45how polite and elegant our works are.
00:50We can help reduce the amount of trash around us.
00:58Roselier started in 2014
01:01as a recyclable material designer.
01:07Last year, Roselier's gown was used as a ramp
01:10in a regional beauty pageant.
01:14It garnered 4 million views on social media.
01:21How does trash become class?
01:24Watch out.
01:25Even if you're on a budget,
01:27it's not just for the Filipino designer,
01:29Roselier Cagas,
01:30who is able to take care of the trash.
01:33She recycles plastic bottles and plastic wrappers
01:37to make gowns and costumes.
01:39It takes 2 to 3 months,
01:41depending on the type of costume
01:43because there are processes involved.
01:46Aside from collecting trash,
01:49we also sanitize it and wash it.
01:54Now, we're just a rental business.
01:57This type of costume is rated 5K
02:03depending on the type of materials used and the design.
02:08We hope to ramp up and wear
02:11well-known personalities.
02:13We want people to be inspired
02:15to make this type of work
02:17so that we can make a living
02:19even if it comes from the trash.
02:23This is your Neville R.C.,
